Business dominates our everyday lives. We are affected by business as citizens, consumers, employees, managers or owners. Political discourse is dominated by themes related to the economy and the financial well-being of UK households. Business A Level focuses primarily on commercial theory and practice i.e. profit making. You will develop a good understanding of many of the practical and theoretical issues surrounding the running of a business-small and large, local, national and global. You will also have to develop the ability to think through solutions to business issues. What skills do you need to study Business? You will need to be numerate and be a problem-solver. You will have to develop your ability to analyse and respond to data and complex business issues, outlining the advantages and disadvantages of certain courses of action, and giving justified recommendations. Be aware that this subject is not an easy option. Businesses are complex organisations that have to navigate a range of internal and external factors. This subject has a sound theoretical basis that has to be thoroughly understood.
